Alpine Kiwanis celebrates 40-plus years of giving back to the community with its annual Brat Days.

Johnsonville Brats, quarter-pound all-beef hot dogs, the meatless barbecue sandwich and a vegetarian brat on whole wheat bun will be available from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday at the Edgebrook shopping center, 1639 N. Alpine Road in Rockford; and at Schnucks, 6410 E. State St. in Rockford and 1810 Harlem Road in Loves Park.

Entertainment is on the bill at each site, with drive-thru service at the Schnucks lots. Tickets cost $6 apiece and will be sold on site. Profits from Brat Days go directly to nonprofits, youth scholarships and to aid national disasters.
